Theme SOTD: Lucky

So the theme of the day is your "lucky" scarf. I found this little beauty at a vintage shop and thought I'd wear it in honor of my Aunt and Uncle:

Football scarf

Football details

They LOVE football! So, on a "Big" game day, I wear this scarf to bring their team "luck". I don't know if it's working too well but, the team isn't at the bottom of the standings...so....sure, it is!!

Oh yeah?! My fist says dif'rent

SOTD: Henry VIII

photo

This one is from a vintage shop. It's a non label scarf with a fantastic pic of Henry VIII. I tend to wear this one knotted as a necklace as the scarf itself is pretty banged up.

Here's the scarf unfolded (and unwrinkled!)

Theme SOTD: Non "H"!

So the scarfies on tPF are still running themed Fridays. This last Friday was "Your Favorite Non-H Scarf". I started buying pretty vintage scarves when I joined tPF. I really loved all the "H" designs but, wanted to make sure I would WEAR a scarf before kicking in the moola for "H". So, off I went to the vintage shops to see what goodies I could unearth!

Here are my favorites (so far!) from my 'collection':

Playtime With My Scarf

Goofing around with a vintage silk scarf I found at one of the awesome vintage shops in my area (there are THREE! I am so frickin' lucky!). This one isn't an "name" scarf. It's just a pretty piece of silk that I picked up. I like the colors in it.

On this day, I couldn't decide what knot to tie it in, so I messed with it for a bit:

simple drape

That one was unsuccessful, in my opinion, so I tried a "puffy" knot. Just doubled a knot and puffed it up a bit:

MaiTai double knot

Yeah, I REALLY didn't like that one (my face says it all!). This one was a little better:

Knotted twist

Here's the one I settled on:

Final knot
